It was longer than the 1 month they said, for sure! You're right, closer to two months. I'm just hoping I don't show up to a bill amount for over the estimate and that it does all the embroidery stitches. I won't be able to pick it up until the weekend. I suspect that this one gave him trouble. I know it did for me and that's why I handed it off to a professional! I don't like to do that, but this one was simply too much for me. Some vintage machines are just worth the $ if they're somewhat rare and in awesome condition, like this Pfaff 362 is.
Oh and by the way, I'm absolutely loving the Pfaff 1471! Tell your friend she has a great machine. I've pieced and quilted several quilts on it and it's one I won't part with.
